  1. Does anyone know if the Lexus gs300 has the same brake booster as the supra ge non ABS.
  2. That makes perfect sense jagman, I will look into getting either getting the ls400 one or bite the bullet and just get one directly from Japan certainly not one from whifbitz at £1400.
  3. Thanks guys, been doing some digging jagman I think you’re might be right about the ls400 certainly cheaper than the supra equivalent things are getting mighty expensive nowadays. If I was to spend the sort of money original parts are, I was looking into performance upgrades as well such as Chase Bays Dual Piston Brake Booster Delete with Bolt-On 6:1 Pedal Ratio. Has anyone had any experience with upgrading the brake booster either with this brand or any other brand.
  4. Here goes I went to go out in the supe today but when I pressed down on the brake pedal absolutely nothing went straight to the ground. I started the engine still the same thing I checked the reservoir and all okay all at proper levels, I can hear a swooshing sound like I can can hear air from somewhere, another thing that is happening when I pump the brake pedal I increases the revs slightly. I believe it could be the servo but hope that it isn’t and wondered if anyone else has had a similar experience. Thankfully it was okay last week as it sailed through the MOT just a bit strange that a week later it just stopped working.
  5. I managed to do it, luckilyI had put the intercooler on an angle so even with my big hands managed to do it the cable had come out due to the white plastic nipple breaking so I have replace the nipple and secured it and now works a treat.
  6. Since putting a fmic I can no longer open my bonnet. I have tried pulling the cable with a pair of pliers after disconnecting it from the puller on the drivers side but no movement. I am putting the car on ramps tomorrow to see if I can reach it but I don’t think it will work is there anything else I can do other than destroying the bumper or the bonnet or am I right royally fooked.

    Respray

    I certainly agree that the labour is at a cost but if it costs £1500 for labour and the cost of a re spray is £4500 that means by my math they are charging £3000 to £4000 for paint I don’t really want to take out a second mortgage to just get my car painted.

    Respray

    Does anyone know anywhere in the Great Yarmouth, Norfolk area who is trustworthy to take my car for a respray without being ripped off as soon as they see a supra they think your loaded and feel they can hike the price I took it to one place in my area and straight away without looking round it £4500 +vat, there is no rust on the car no dents just tired paint, I know it is a lot of car to paint but £4500 +vat seems a bit excessive.
  9. Thread revival, how much would this cost now I wonder!!!
  10. Pm’d for boost gauge.
  11. I am in desperate need of a set of front brake callipers for a non turbo automatic mkiv supra must be in full working order can anyone be of assistance. Please Pm me if you can with a price. Thanks, Tony.
  12. Is the manifold still available.
  13. Sent a PM regarding log manifold
  14. Has anyone got a drivers side window regulator
  15. Thanks Josh, Sounds good how much would you want for it if I needed to keep it.
  16. Hopefully this will work if not I will try to get hold of a new/good secondhand igniter does anyone sell these , I have seen some on eBay but not to sure about buying one from there, is there any other Toyota models that use the same igniter or are the specific to the Supra.
  17. Should the igniter get really hot as it seems a bit to hot to me nearly to hot to touch when engine has been running.
  18. Hope someone can help or shed some light I have a NA-T and it started to misfire when warm. I went out in the supe today just to give her a bit of a run she was running perfect no issues no misfire then parked up and then after about an hour I started her up and then started to misfire sounded like a Subaru Impreza all the way home so I took it really easy, when I got back I checked all the pipe work and was okay took the plugs out clean them up put them back so after I put everything back together the engine colder it started up perfectly no hesitation as if nothing was wrong when it was misfiring there was no engine warning lights come on. Just to add this is the second time this has happened the first time there was an inter cooler pipe come off and I thought that was the problem but obviously not, and by the time I started her up again the engine was cold and purred like a kitten so obviously something is happening when she gets warm, would it be something electrical that needs replacement.
  19. I’m in Great Yarmouth Norfolk
  20. So I have seen a mk3 supra gte intake for sale , but one more question has this ever been done on an automatic supra if so are there any extra mods needed obviously longer cable for the throttle but what about the kick down cable.
  21. Hi there I just wondered if a ffim from a automatic TT supra will fit and work on a na-t with an automatic gearbox, this has probably been asked before if so I am sorry in advance.
  22. Sorry about that hope I didn’t cause any offence if so please accept my appology.
